Rev 10.0/9-13 3 MRTA8-DC: #35076
SPECIFICATIONS
Designed for use with a crane or other hoisting equipment, MRTA8-DC lifters employ vacuum
to hold a load for lifting, and they provide manual 360° rotation and mechanically assisted,
manual 90° tilt movements for load manipulation.
10" [25 cm] nom. diameter,
lipped (Model HV11)
1
11" [28 cm] nom. diameter,
lipped (Model G3370)
(Eight, standard rubber, spring-mounted for ¼" [7 mm] travel, with #60 filter screen)
Pad Spread:
2
(to outer edges)
(rated at 16" Hg [-54 kPa] on clean, smooth, nonporous flat surfaces
3
)
Manual, 90°, with four-bar tilt linkage that minimizes operator effort and automatically holds a
correctly attached load in the upright or flat position.
Manual, 360°, with automatic latching (when desired).
2 diaphragm type, 1 SCFM [28 liters/minute] nominal airflow
or
1 diaphragm type, 3 SCFM [85 liters/minute] nominal airflow
Vacuum reservoir helps prevent immediate vacuum loss in case of power failure and extends
battery life by reducing pump cycles required to maintain vacuum.
Dial gauge indicates current vacuum level in positive inches of Hg and negative kPa.
Low Vacuum Warning Light:
Red light is energized until vacuum level is sufficient to lift maximum load weight (higher than
16" Hg [-54 kPa]) and whenever vacuum loss causes pumps to re-engage.
Available
with Model LB8TLO - Tilt Lock. When engaged, this option ensures that the upright
or flat orientation of the load is not compromised by accidental or unexpected forces.
See separate instructions about other options.
Maximum = 6000 feet [1828 meters]
32° to 104° F [0° to 40° C]
This lifter is designed to have a service life of at least 20,000 lifting cycles, when used and
maintained as intended. Vacuum pads, filter elements and other wear-out items are excluded;
see MAINTENANCE and REPLACEMENT PARTS LIST for more information. For the DISPOSAL OF
THE LIFTER after its service life, see INTENDED USE.
Design Category "B", Service Class "0" (see www.powrgrip.com for more information)
!!-CE-!! Note: This symbol appears in the
INSTRUCTIONS
manual only when requirements of a CE Standard are
different
from
requirements of other standards that also apply to this vacuum lifter. CE requirements are mandatory in geographical areas
where CE Standards apply, but may be optional in other locations.

To identify the Pad Spread for any specific pad frame configuration, see the illustrations in ASSEMBLY: TO CHANGE THE PAD FRAME
CONFIGURATION.
3
Load Capacity is based on a friction coefficient of 1; see MAINTENANCE: VACUUM PAD MAINTENANCE: Friction Coefficient for
additional information.
